(Investment, red) in any form. This is in the form of one of them, indeed as stated earlier. If I'm not mistaken, there are three types of businesses, yes, three types of models. There are stocks, sukuk, and others," said KPK Investigation Director Asep Guntur Rahayu to reporters as quoted from the KPK YouTube, Monday, July 8.

"This (IDR 1 trillion fund, ed) is used for its investment," he continued.
